PostgreSQL is a full featured database engine suitable for most database applications. ODBC support is available through the unixODBC for OS/2 libraries also available at http://hobbes.nmsu.edu
I have placed a build of postgreSQL v8.0 RC4 on Hobbes.
PostgreSQL:
http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/cgi-bin/h-search?key=postgresql-8.0-rc4.zip
This version has a couple of fixes for OS/2 specific problems, the loading of function DLLs now works and the --help command line switch works for psql.exe
A session logfile facility is now available for psql.exe, the -L logfile-name switch on the psql command line is used to turn on the logfile facility. The output for the log is appended to an existing log file of the same name.
The LIBC runtime appears to have a bug in its signal handling that will cause the server to hang after 40 or 50 query sessions. This bug affects all builds.
